I am on 22 years in this business, damn can't I retire yet! It may sound cliche or old school but I have actually held every position from the grouund to the crown and from the rake to the brake handle. Been in mangement and consulting for the last 10 years. Just like everybody else on here my job title or description has changed recently to just surviving life! But just like all other slow times, networking is key. Technology affords us a lot larger network nowadays, especially with sites like this that Curtis has put together and so graciously hosted all of us on!

Range also indicates that the delivery of their new rigs in the Marcellus shale are on schedule and they intend to increase the rig count in the Marcellus as previously planned.

Our industry and the future of US energy.
I have been following the rig counts, the commodity prices and the markets in general. Just like the rest of the world has.
A couple of things have really stuck in my thoughts here lately.
First off the general rule of thumb when a company makes profits they have historically reinvested those profits to minimize the tax paid on the revenues.
Secondly the days of companies increasing their proven reserves by aquisition are coming to an end.
How many of us remember the slogan in the 70's....Am… Continue

Almost thought I was gonna get stuck working christmas...they threw a core job in on us at the last minute and everything that could go wrong did...thought we lost some slip dies down the hole...thought we lost half the core back to the hole...when we broke off the first barrel we had mud so we laid her down and when we brought up the second barrel we could not feel anything in the bottom....turns out we only lost the bottom 10 inches....the grapplers would not hold the sand lol!
